    I got a Victorinox Swiss Army Knife back in the 90s, and the tweezers are the only tool from that that I use regularly. The knife itself is in a box somewhere, but the tweezers are in my toiletry kit that goes with me on every trip.

    I'd take a Victorinox Rambler/Midnite Manager over all of these. But it's a personal thing. But it far exceeds all of these imo.

    This is a good list. One thing to note is that the standard Gerber Dime has a small blade which means it is not TSA compliant. I'm not sure if there is a version that does not have a blade. I know the Leatherman Style PS is a similar small multitool that's TSA compliant.

    Input on the ones I know Gerber Shard - it’s a nice TSA friendly multi-tool, i just disliked the size though the curved pry bar created a nice bit of leverage Kershaw PT-2 - solid TSA friendly multi-tool. The Philips is will placed and I can’t deny I’m constantly drawn to tools with a P38 style can opener which I never needed to use but there will be that one time that’ll make me look like a hero Victorinox Classic - go with the Victorinox Rambler instead. Seriously, that’s the best mini SAK. it’s got a small Philips which is great for those battery covers, the ever useful nail file, scissors for breaking down boxes, and scissors for cutting those pesky tags Gerber Dime - I’ve tried and I just don’t like it. It’s heavy, the every tool is too short, lacks a Philips which I find more useful than a flathead, and the metal is soft making the scissors near useless. Plus it’s bulky and heavy for such a small tool

A méditer Pas évident de faire le meilleur choix entre légèreté élégance et avoir le maximum d’outils sur soi… D’autres outils chez leatherman plus petit existait mais ils ont arrêté la production…autre problème le noir qui s’écaille ou blanchi avec le temps sur certains produits

    Watched a comparison and use video of keychain pry tools. kershaw was just about completely useless. Both gerber shard and mullet worked well. Good luck finding a gerber dime without a blade, not tsa compliant with the blade. been looking for years. last year gerber emailed saying they no longer manufacture it. perhaps that has changed?

    Don’t buy the Gerber Shard. I had a job that required me to pry off battery compartments a lot and I went through 4 of them because I didn’t want to spend a ton, but needed a pry bar. I heard good and bad but figured i would give it a shot. All of them snapped or bent beyond repair. Dog shit product.

    I have once made a mistake of buying the Micra - that's how I lost 40€, why I consider it a mistake? Scissors aren't aligned at the tip and cutting paracord is a difficulty, tweezers are garbage, only the bottle opener proved to be useful. Also I don't like how LM is forcing the micra, come on, everybody knows Squirt was better!

    Many of these tools are vastly different from each other so obviously dont compare well. The doohickey is a great simple prybar if you don't have a daily heavy-duty use application, travel friendly. The shard isn't flat which makes it bulky and annoying. Pryma I wanted to like but it's so pointy and sharp that it stabs you inside your pockets and catches on your clothing. The Kershaw is useless as a pry, too thick, philips screwdriver a joke. Classic SD a timeless tool but useless for prying. A nice keychain pen knife and scissors. Go for the Manager or Rambler though, slightly thicker, but includes the 3d philips and even a pen. Dime is in another category, unfair to compare. Bigger, heavier ,includes pliers. "James Brand" - absolute rip off, buy the doohickey. Micra is nice if the toolset is right for you, also bigger and heavier though. TPT slide is a lot for what it is. Like the utility, but you can achieve that for a lot less $

    I got a Nextool Mini Flagship and threw my venerable SAK in my sock drawer. Its no bigger but far more functional and puts the gerber dime to shame. Also better than the leatherman micra imo because the micra does not have pliers. Its my top pick EDC keychain tool . . . although you did not review it in this video. kzread.info/dash/bejne/l455lKebgtWukqQ.htmlsi=Ae43tq9pV9yPPuMF
